When Michael took a photo of my trainers with the comment “It’s for the kit report” I thought he was joking, I should have known better. At tonight’s hill training session he reminded me… so here it is.
I used to run in Asics trainers and always suffered with sore feet, always just in one spot but it never really caused too much of a problem. Two years ago I started to increase my mileage and found I was also getting a very sore right knee that stopped me running for several weeks.
It was during this injury period that I sought advice from a sports physiotherapist and Running Bear in Wilmslow. The physio recommended orthotics (inserts) for my over-pronation and Running Bear recommended Brooks Adrenaline GTS trainers, which are support trainers especially for over pronators like me.
These trainers have made such a difference to my running. I no longer suffer from sore feet and more importantly, have not suffered with knee problems since.
These are the 12th edition of the Adrenaline GTS trainers and a special edition colour for Olympic year. This is my fourth pair; I have used one series 10 and two series 11 before this latest version.
I would thoroughly recommend them, maybe not the special edition colour though.
